My only goal in writing is to make someone feel something. That and to try and write something half as good as Traveler by The Straight Elf. Let's hope I at least accomplish one of those.

I've been reading fanfiction fairly regularly for about 5 or 6 years, mainly within Harry Potter, though I have read a great many Elder Scrolls stories as I find the universe and the folklore that it contains enthralling. I hadn't written in any capacity outside of an English classroom up until only recently, so the stories that I write are my initial, blind scramblings into the art. My favourite book in the Harry Potter series is Goblet of Fire, hence why many of my stories tend to feature it so prevalently.

I don't have a great deal of free time in my life, so I struggle to find an occasion to write, though it has become one of my favourite things to do.

Update (13/11/2018): So, as many of you will have noticed, I had at one point taken down my work. This was due to a general burnout with the process of creating fiction and a growing sense of irritation with the way in which people interacted with my work. However, with time away, I've reevaluated how I feel about writing and have a healthier perspective into the entire process.

Some have messaged me about no longer being notified as to when I post a new chapter and this is why. You will have to re-follow/re-favourite.

Thanks.
